It's quite obvious that Twitter/Google/Facebook/whoever do not have algorithms that scale where they can genuinely curate their content. Seems that obvious since Google bought YouTube.

Isn't it quite obvious that it's never been their prerogative. Nor protecting copyright.



And it shouldn't be their prerogative!

If we're going to randomly throw blame around, then why not throw it on the ISP too? They're the ones ultimately serving the content. But I don't think anybody wants to open up that can of worms.


The blame is not random.

ISPs don't know what content they're serving up other than what host it's coming from 99% of the time.
